Which is best Free Virus Scan

Hi sporty, I use McAfee, but when I install for friends who can't pay or wish not to I use the product in the following link: http://free.grisoft.com/freeweb.php/doc/2/

Make sure you follow the "free" prompts, it is a good program lacking only technical support, but most (and rarely is it needed) questions are answered in FAQ's.  I am sure others will have suggestions, good luck in your decision.

Lots of the regular posting anti-malware experts on this board have moved to pastures new for various reasons. You may find it better to find another support site to assist you.

Please go to this link and choose one of the websites on the left of the page.
Alliance of Security Analysis Professionals: http://www.a-sap.org/
As you can see they all work together in cleaning malware (Virus, Spyware and adware).

To help you choose from that list

TomCoyotes contains the anti-malware school - Classroom.
SpyWareInfo contains the anti-malware school - BootCamp.
Net-Intergration is the support site of Spybot S&D.
Lavasoft Support is the support site of Ad-aware.
Wilders Security has since stopped hijackthis log support due to the lack of experienced helpers.
Others that I would recommend Zerosrealm, Subratam.org, SpyWare BeWare and ComputerCops, but generally all those on that list will have experts to help you.
Texruss and ChrisRLG are Teachers at The TomCoyote Forum.

There are still some knowledgable people left posting here at Dell, so you may still get help from them.

I wish you all the best at getting your computer clean.
